Hello everyone!
I have recently purchased a galaxy note, and since then have had a constant problem of auto shutdown, at the beginning it happened once or twice so I didn't even mind, but now its just becoming too frequent for the phone to even be usable!
I can't return the note, and have no warranty (nor money to buy another one). Son no viable solution there.
I sold my previous phone so I could buy the Note, without it I am phoneless.
I have looked EVERYWHERE for a solution and haven't come to one single conclusion yet!
I will now post some facts about the phone's situation:
Model GT N7000
Rooted: yes, via cwm
Rom: Jelly Bean 4.1.2 Beta, flashed via cwm (but the issue occurred on stock ICS, gingerbread and costom ROMs too, stock ROMs where flashed via PC ODIN and mobile ODIN)
Kernel: Phillz flashed via cwm
-Does not shut down while connected to charger (and is charging).
-Tried different kernels and ROMs, official and custom ones, and the bug kept happening.
-Shutdowns are completely random (although I found that using ROM Toolbox and setting CPU min to 500 and governor to Performance the phone became more stable and didn't shutdown so frequently. Recently these last 3 days this has become pointless, the phone is unusable unless connected to charger)
-Auto shutdowns happen when phone is in sleep, or awake, no matter what I am doing with it, it just happens.
I am thinking of replacing the battery, since no matter what software changes I do it keeps shutting down maybe a new battery will help.
But then again, I don't know, I'm just desperate...
Thank you for all those who take the time to read this!
Interesting, maybe the logs show something. Check logcat app for that. Elixer2 has a good overviewable one. There might be some hints shown as to what is happening. I cant really help you with interpreting.
Do you do clean installs? mind the brickbug
Battery levels, they show correct values? Also after reboot same value as before? You can set in settings, display I think battery tp percent. Easier monitoring from statusbar.
Try andrometer to check voltage levels as wel. Fully charged should be around 4200 mv.
Do a little dance to brighten up your mood.
Next, or first, check if battery contacts are clean and alligned when putting battery in. It might just be a loose fitting. I doubt that thought.
With autoshutdown, you seen android saying, shutting down now, or does it go black and just crashes so to speak?

Thank you so much for the help!
I have been suggested to purchase another battery, and had actually been thinking about that!
Will andrometer confirm my suspicions that it is a battery issue?
The battery connectors are clean, cleaned them when this problem first appeared.
And the shutdown is as if I suddenly removed the battery, the power is cut right off the device.
I cant dance but I'll play guitar, that always helps me, thank you for the suggestion! xD
hum, not software related imo, really an hardware issue, electrical issue, related to battery as it does not occur while charged.
first of all: easily done: remove any SD card and try. still the Pb?
then borrow another battery, fully charged, and try. Still the PB?
then with your own battery again (as it does not come from the battery), check the electrical contacts (dirty, embossed...), try to check that mechanically the battery is firmly kept in place, add sticky tape/pieces of paper to maintain the battery. Still the PB?
then i am afraid that the best to do is going to... after sale service... it may be only a small welding a bit cracked on the power circuit, sometimes a small vibration or a temperature difference opens the power line and your phone immediately shut down. It is almost impossible to locate and to fix for common people.
good luck mate !
Side note: setting CPU min to 500 and then setting governor to Performance is pointless, because performance = always max CPU frequency.
Anyway, I can think of various ways of checking whether your CPU is misbehaving at some frequencies (like SetCPU stress tests on different freqs set to both min and max) but that's likely not the case, all signs do point to some kind of battery issue.
If I were you, I'd try to find a battery somewhere (friend/relative/whoever else with GNote, or even a shop) and see if the problem persists with another battery. If it disappears = buy a new battery, whether official or copy or bigger size, whatever. If it persists = at least try to flash some more customizable rom/kernel combination, of ICS kind - where you can over/under-clock/volt.
Thank you saturax555 and GwynBleidd for your suggestions!
Unfortunatlly I dont know anyone close to me that has got a Gnote, but I will buy the battery and test it out, its not expensive at all, I've seen a 2600 (Or 2400, can't quite remember) mha battery for salle somewhere, if it fixes the issue I'll even end up with a larger battery!
I'll inform you guys of the results after I get a new battery, so if anyone else has the same problem we can help them too

+1 on all above comments. It does appear battery/ hardware issue. Lets hope a new battery fixes it.
Andrometer will only confirm if charging level is reached. Also you can use it to check if at certain voltage this occures. It gives false positive on good health battery.So thats not a thorough indicator.
Guitar is way cooler btw :thumbup:

I searched for andrometer and all I got was an app to measure distance using GPS :s
So I got battery spy today and these are the results so far (See image).
My voltage is usually around 3900mV and 4300mV, usually at 4192mV, can anyone say if these values are normal??

Appears normal. Battery appears charged. app is called androsensor, mixed them up.
Do you get weird artifacts prior to fallout? Like screen flickering, lines and such?
Am so interested in cracking this nut.
You could check emmc brickbug app. You will have bug as all notes, but it also does a sector check. Like if part of emmc is corrupted. Am not expecting this to be case as clearly its battery related. Just want to be sure.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2
No flickering or anything, it's just like if I suddenly removed the battery.
Got new results from emmc check and I downloaded andrometer
Thank you so much for your help!
Cool.
I have a hunch its not battery, cause unstable battery usually(not 100% sure about symptoms) has those flickering issues.
Its not emmc, test passed yes!
you had it on different roms. With clean installs and different modems, kernels, etc. No common denominator romwise. maybe app or hardware.
Then its interesting to keep both cpu temp and battery temp in check. See if there are spikes prior to fallout. cpu temp I am not sure. you can try cooltool, disable gauges and setup cpu utilization, frequency, ram size, battery % and temperature.
watch those values for abnormalities when it occurs.
Also check the logs for errors/warnings (elixer2 has a good one)
But I am at a point of really guessing. I have a feeling its hardware but am hoping now for rogue app or battery still.
maybe someone else has some ideas.

Hey guys! My new battery just arrived and I just plugged it into my note and it is back to normal!
It's an official galaxy note replacement battery, 2600mah (100 more then the original, not much of a difference I know) and it was relatively cheap, 15 euros and I even had it delivered to my house!
I want to thank you guys for all your help and advices!
Thank you all from the heart! You contributed to making me a lot happier today!!
Best wishes for all of you, (dare I call you) my friends!
Thank you!

I had this same issue.. Mine was bought last year.. Just around 2 weeks ago i want to root and put a custom Rom...
I root using cf-root + philz kernel.. Then i flash rocketrom 4.1.2... V3 i think.. Then this issue came.... It 's does have flickering issue before it' s going off.. This all thing doesn't happen while on charge... I'm still not try using others battery..... I also have flash others custom Rom.. Like Ultimate, fusion.... And lastly i unroot it using stock fw at sammobile.. Still it's happen
Try changing the battery, that fixed my note right up!
Is the symptoms are the same as mine its not software related, order a new battery, and if you want you can root and flash the rom that you want so when it arrives your note is ready to go!
Tip: root the note and get battery calibration from the play store, it's free, you will need it to recalibrate your new battery so you get real values displayed and to avoid excessive battery drain.

I'm facing the same problem and its getting frustrating. I'm currently using Asylum ROM 20130303 build and latest Gapps for android 4.2. did a full wipe. tried checking my battery stats and its normal. did a recovery, flashed again but still problem. my gnote just shutdown and cant turn back on unless i plug the charger. any help?
may be you first need to try with an alternate battery first.. or go back to a stock rom and test.. most prominent symptom is using the camera with flash shuts down the phone immediately
i purchased a new battery and now its running fine
The phone is flawed and shuts off on it's own under various conditions, all hardware related. I am not able to post externally due to not having enough posts yet. However, I have had the same issue on 3 Galaxy Note 2's from Verizon. I made a video that shows exactly what is going on and posted it on the following website...
wwwDOTgalaxynote2shutsoffDOTcom
You will have to paste that link in to a new browser and replace the DOTs accordingly to get to it, but once you see the video, you will be enlightened. Be sure to read the details I provided on that site as well. They go in to detail about the problems that I have had and the lack of proper support that Samsung is willing to provide.
Same issue

Used the battery in my wifes n7000 , however no issues at all
Only seem to happen on my phone.
I flashed it to stock std 4.1.2 , however problem still persist. auto shutdown few times a day
Gets worse when i use an external SD
Ho all,
after upgrading to the last 1.29 OTA I'm facing two main problems:
1. The device becames hot after a little usage, like browsing or whatever I do.
2. The battery performance is worst than before.
Did anybody incurred in to the same issues after OTA?
Suggestions?
Reset? Check your music, could be a wakelock.

I haven't experienced any noticeable difference heat or battery performance wise although i only updated yesterday. Will keep an eye on it.
No problems here. I think it got a little faster still. Or maybe placebo.

Yes, no noticeable issues here after update, seems a bit faster even, but could be my imagination. My phone heated up quite quickly already before update, and it's still the case.

While I received my One with the 1.29 update already on it, my device gets hot after only 10-30 minutes of use and my battery life is around 4 hours of screen on time; I'm not sure how that falls in line with other One's? I almost made my own thread earlier but decided to wait it how and observe a bit longer
No problems to report with mine after update. A little bit better than before i might add.

Same here mate, I follow the battery thread, seems most of people share the same battery life with you and me, if you want longer you will have to sort those wake locks out.

Part of the reason I wanted to make my own thread, or at least comment on one like this was about those wake locks. For example, in gsam google maps has around 4400 wake locks, Facebook has 800, Chrome around 300. Are those normal? I know in those various other threads they were talking about the media server wake locks, but when I check those I only had around 40-50 (having used the play music app only twice) so I'm not sure what is considered "normal" to each app/activity/service. If I may, does your One get warm/hot just as quickly as mine and the OP's? Perhaps the "perceivable" heat of the phone is higher due to it being made from metal, but is not actually something to be concerned about. System Monitor reports my battery as being in the 37C-40C range after the 30 minutes or so of usage.
I have had no problems with mine after the update. It did get warm in use before the update.
Zdbox usually reports an idle temp of 20c+ and when playing games it gets to about 37c.

A factory reset seems to have solved the problems. I will keep on testing to be sure about it.
Hi Guys,
I have been using Xperia SP for the past 3 weeks. But since last week, i found that that mobile started getting heated up if i play some games for 5 mins. Also if i switch on camera and keep it running for 5 mins, mobile started heating up. Heat in the sense i can feel the warmth when i hold my phone. Is this normal? Or anything wrong with my handset? Please help me out guys. I have put the flip cover which Sony has given as free product along with the purchase of this mobile. Any kind of reply is very much appreciated. I am really worried cos of this issue in my mobile.

Thanks for the quick reply bro.. I have Updated with the latest firmware dude. Still my mobile is getting heated up. I have seen many reviews and videos before buying this mobile. But none of the reviews specified about this heating thing. If mobile started heating just for 5 mins of gaming, i am wondering how guys are playing high end games and completing it.

Its pretty much something you get used to after a while.Also this will help you getting through the harsh winter !!! The highest temperature that i got was 48 degrees C.Pretty hot i know but you have a powerfull processor and graphics that drain the battery thus increasing its temp.
Use CPU Z https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cpuid.cpu_z to monitor your battery temperature if you like.
So you mean to say this is not actually a big problem to worry about? Or do I need to take my mobile to the service centre for a quick check? Please suggest me.
Can't make any guarantees but it's generally not a problem unless it's getting hot when you're doing nothing. If the device cools to between 20 and 25 degrees once you've stopped activity there's nothing wrong.

ditto,
havent seen a single phone that doesn't get Hot when playing games, especially ones which use the GPU/CPU a lot
on the whole it stays pretty cool under normal use compared to other phones.

Thanks a lot guys for your replies! I was actually worried about this heating and thought of approaching the nearby service center. Now i am ok with this! Thanks once again..
Just browsing the web or reading Facebook I feel the phone getting really hot. A short phone call also causes a rapid heating of the battery. Using Android System Info Pro and I see the battery temperature is 107.5° F is this normal? I had a Note2 and it never heated up like this causing massive drain. I am using Watchdog to monitor if I have any apps running rogue and I find nothing unusual.
I already called and have an advanced RMA in progress and they are replacing the device. I got it Wednesday and I am not having anywhere near the great battery I see others reporting.
Sorry if this has already been covered I did search the forum and my search yields no results.

Did you check for an rogue apps? Sounds like your clock speed was getting stuck at the max frequency... This would result in faster battery drain and the phone heating up.. Much like playing a resource intensive game.
If the issue persists with the new device, the the culprit is most likely an app you downloaded.
Does your device ever enter deep sleep?
What is your wake lock situation?
Post up some screen caps of your battery statistics, this will better help to determine the cause.
Moto X rocking 4.4
There's nothing rogue I can find. I don't think it's software, watchdog finds nothing. Better battery stats shows it deep sleeps. I believe there is an electrical issue because while using Chrome I touched the screen and haptic feedback went crazy when I touch the screen and look at this screenshot you will see an orange blob on the bottom right of the screen and it was stuck and flickering. Very strange.

I also think it gets hot easily. The battery temp can rise 20-30°F just by doing some web browsing for 1-2 minutes. Did you find any solution?

i have the same issue.. mine is even worse... my device goes as high as 47° C (116.5° f) , and i remember...once i was charging my device and uploading a lot of files to google drive and it went 54° C (129°F)
i am thinking of a replacement... please let me know about the issue when you get your replacement.
EDIT : sorry i noticed this thread is very old... soo.. how is your new Moto X now?
Can anyone let me know the below temperatures for Xperia T CPU running stock rom is ok or not ok?
idle : upto 36C ish
on slight use : above 40C
on longer usage of basic apps such as whatsapp, viber, facebook: between 40 to 50C
browser: around 55C (browsing xda took it over 60C)
repost
CPU temperature is not so important, it will always be that "hot" while being on use. Battery temperature is the thing that should be important to you.
I think these values are ok, as long as your phone does not shutdown unexpectedely (with the aproppriate "Shutting down" mesaage box) - that usualy means that the temperature of both CPU and the battery is way too high and any other operations may result in their permanent damage. If you don't experience such situations then I think you shouldn't be worried about anything
Anyway I have to tell you that IMHO this phone has, in fact, some "problems" with overheating or at least with pretty high temperature than it should be normally. But I don't care, after two years of really heavy usage - it still works and it never disappointed me, I hope you won't be too
Thermal throttling will start at around 65-70C, at 80 the phone will shutdown.
These functions are hard coded in kernel, so dont worry.

Battery temperature hasn't gone beyond 40C if I remember. Only started to monitor recently. I've been using this just over two years too and never felt any heat when using it for normal usage on 4.0 and 4.1 stock roms.
Only felt it on 4.3 and downgrading after trying 4.3 uk rom 2nd time, even 4.1 now produces noticeable heat which is what's bugging me. Really regret for upgrading to 4.3 for a 2nd time :'(
The initial downgrade was done through SEUS as 4.3 wasn't released for UK then and had the blue triangle icon on some bootups but no other issue or heat.
Which rom do you use now on your device?
40C is really low value for the battery. Trust me, you really shouldn't be worried about the temperature
I was using the newest build of OmniROM until yesterday. I flashed the newest release of CM11 and I'm not disappointed.
ok, thanks. I am trying the Omega v2 rom since yesterday, but it seems to make it much warmer so might head back to 4.1
What helped me on my Xperia V is rooting, downloading No-Frills Cpu Controp and changing governor to ondemand (it was interactive by default).

I've been using a TPU gel case since I bought the phone... and never felt any heat (apart from when trying out 4.3 but yet less than present level of heat). So seems it took 2 years for the phone to start this 'heating up' mode. I am trying to understand if it is a software issue or something to do with hardware.

I've read that almost all Sony phones heat up so it's probably a hardware issue...but since rooting and uninstalling all bloatware and disabling some of the google's services, I noticed my phone doesn't really heat up that much anymore.

Even I have rooted and disabled almost all the bloatware including some google apps (actually removed them from the system/app folder itself). This was how it was prior to 4.3 testing and had no issues. Only heated slightly for a YouTube video or so. Removed the same list of items this time around as well, but for even apps like whatsapp it heats..so something is definitely wrong... it remains cool on idle, hence not a background service that causes it.

Then it might be a hardware issue :/
My phone used to overheat on 4.3, but on 4.1 it's pretty cool.

that's exactly how mine was
wondering if there is some clash in the internal memory area.. (which happened when using flashtool to downgrade... from 4.3 this time). Before used SUS as 4.3 wasn't released for UK and it repaired to 4.1
When i play CoC with data mobile the temperature become very high...this can damage any hardware components?
Because i changed the battery two times for random reboots and i think that some components are broken
its WINTER
